That is a beast of a cooler, very nice noise and temperatures (aside from coil whine of course).
With the increase in power consumption I'm not sure if the performance boost over a 480 is worth it. In the US at least there are sales at or under $200 for an 8GB Rx 480 right now, so as long as they stay in stock I'd rather buy one of those for 1080p gaming.
At sub $200 I'd buy a 480 for sure, it's the same thing as a 570.

Thanks HH. Another meaningful review as always. I think Vega is still the cards to wait for. Thankfully only a couple more months.

There are rumors that it's been pushed to Q1 2018.
